I'm getting tired of my '05 Accord (I've always owned a boring but realiable Japanese sedan) and am thinking of getting a 300C...or a Cadillac CTS. So from this:to:Anyone own one? Do you have fams that own one? All the transmission problems and hemi rattling that's noted in the 300c equivalent to the 'Strut forums got me a little shook, but I figure since it's a known issue...What are you all pushing today?

here is is after getting t-boned in Chicago:
but it's all better now...mostly.
sensible. fuel efficient. practicle. fine by me.
wifey and i are a 1 car family...this gets 'er done, and i'd do it again from now until whenever.
but my first car was:
(a 2-door)
stick with japanese cars dude, the shit thats out there now being pushed is pure crap. Too many problems with american and german vehicles.
I know, but it looks so dope! Arrgh. Maybe I'll just save some duckets and get a Bentley someday and laugh about the time I thought getting a 300C was a good idea.
dog, all those new american sedans just look like fake, lowrent bentleys.
just say no to bootleg bentleys!
HAHA, SEEN. I just like how they look. Have you ever seen 22"s on an Accord? Exactly. I'd almost rather have the unreliable car with the rims at this point haha. Maybe I should get it over with and just get a DONK, Mcdonald's branded of course
And, my taste in cars has nothing to do with looks- they are a low interest item, as my friends in advertising tell me. Gimme something that works, and I don't have to think about, and I'm all set.
That said...given that the 'boss,' at work drives a bentley, and i get to walk past it every day in the summer...well, the difference between the real deal and Chrysler 600 is the difference between (apologies to mark twain) lightning and a lightning bug.
yo, 22'a on car is so yesterday. Do the 26's
SEEN, I would say that's a given. FUCK IT I'MMA STACK UP AND BUY A PHANTOM. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST, FOLLS!
Actually I'mma get one of these
cos
"-never buy a phantom 28"s can't fit"

except instead of the baby blue mine was oh so sexy beige/tan.....oh how the ladies flocked to that car.
My whip is a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX...a reliable, but definitely not boring Japanese sedan.
shame what they did to them now
, although here in Aus it's known as a Honda Jazz. We've named him Theolonious.

never owned an audi? totally reliable and drive like a dream
2001 Nissan Frontier SE Crew Cab
1956 Volkswagen Type 1
I'm getting tired of going to the pump all of the time with the truck. It gets around 16 or 17 miles to the gallon. More and more lately I want to sell it and get another Honda or Acura.
I own a 2000 Audi A8 and it is an orgasm on wheels! Its really what a driving experience should be all about. The catch is its high maintenance... Thankfully a) I put about 4,000 miles / year on a car and b) I got it for very cheap.
If you drive a lot, I would recommend a boring Japanese vehicle... We rock a Lexus GX 470 as a primary vehicle and its awesome. Lexus service is impeccable as well.
DO NOT BUY A CHRYSLER! My wife leased a PT Cruiser and it was in the shop once a month. And drove horribly... and this was the top of the line Luxury PT.
CI-TAY-SHUN!!!
Ha ha! My first car as well! I still yell out every time I see one.
This car was a total p.o.s. but I have found memories of it, nonetheless. 4 speed, manual, with an AM radio with one speaker.
I had the automatic ... horrible. But, similarly, I have fond memories.
Nowadays its ...
I said lady, step inside my Hyundai
I'm gonna take you up to Glendale
Gonna take you for a real good meal
Not much has changed in the "stylin" department.
